The distinctive features of artisanal design and industrial design.

Abstract
The theme of design is here addressed, understood in its broadest sense, therefore neither only aesthetic nor exclusively technical-productive. The intent is to privilege the point of view of the "design project" and to describe its connotations of implementation both in the craft and in the industrial activity. Then, there is the dichotomy between craftsman and artist, both linked to the anthropic factor of the place and its ‘genius loci’. In other words, there has always been that distinction between arts and crafts, where the latter, typical of craftsmanship, require manual practice like the former, but are aimed above all at the manufacture of objects with intrinsic functionality. The figure of the designer puts an end to this distinction. At last, an enunciation of the distinctive features of "industrial design" is provided.
